Spokesman of the Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) Worldwide, Amb. Binebai Yerin Princewill has encouraged Chief Dennis Otuaro PhD, Administrator Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) not to be distracted by his detractors. The Liberator Newspapers Worldwide can report.

Binebai Yerin Princewill stated that the Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) Worldwide is fully in support of Otuaro and his administration, stressing that he should continue with his good works.

The Spokesman of Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) Worldwide, Amb. Binebai Yerin Princewill made the remark yesterday when the workaholic Administrator of the Niger Delta Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Chief Dennis Otuaro PhD and his team stopped over at the Spokesman’s office in Warri to engage with other leaders and members of Ijaw Youth Council.

Princewill while describing Otuaro as one of the most humble Niger Delta and Ijaw leader in Government has particularly urged the doing well Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) to remain focused, stressing that the IYC is proud of him with a charge that he should not be distracted by his detractors.

Speaking further, Binebai had also appealed to Otuaro to consider the IYC in the scheme of things in his strong drive to reposition the Amnesty Programme, adding that the Ijaw Youth Council is very critical in the polity.

The erudite Spokesman of Council had strongly lauded Otuaro for engaging stakeholders across the region, adding that it is only enemies of Ijaw nation, Niger Delta, Nigeria and agent of darkness that will be criticising Otuaro that is currently revamping the Amnesty Programme.

According to Princewill, the moves taken by Otuaro so far within the last few months that he has held sway as the Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme has been quite historic, stressing that no one that has occupied the Amnesty Programme in the past that has been able to mingle with the Niger Delta people and her stakeholders like Otuaro is currently doing now, stressing that PAP is truly in a safe hand.

However, Otuaro who extended greetings from his boss, His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, President Federal Republic of Nigeria and Malam Nuhu Ribadu, National Security Adviser to the President had lauded the 9th NEC for their articulate press statements and briefings, noting that the IYC remains very special and critical in the Nigerian State.

While rolling out some of the measures PAP under his administration will be embarking on in revamping PAP, Otuaro said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is committed in the development of the Niger Delta region and her people.

Nevertheless, Otuaro had promised that he will continue to work with the Ijaw Youth Council, stressing that the IYC has played a pivotal role towards the growth and development of Ijaw and the Niger Delta region.

The Administrator had also commended the Spokesman of Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) Worldwide, Amb. Binebai Yerin Princewill for portraying a positive image of the IYC and by extension the Ijaw people, adding that he is using the medium to congratulate the 9th NEC for its one year anniversary.

Moreover, Dr. Otuaro had tasked the IYC to always prioritise the unity of Ijaws and Council, stressing that division within Council should be discouraged by all means, maintaining that he is proud of the 9th NEC and wish them more success in the years ahead.

Earlier, the Western Zone IYC Chairman, Comr. Nicholas Igarama also appreciated Otuaro for reaching out to stakeholders across board, stressing that the Zone is very proud of him and his leadership, noting that the Zone is totally in support of Otuaro.

Igarama had used the opportunity to present some issues affecting the Zone before the PAP Administrator.

Dr. Dennis Otuaro visited the Spokesman’s office with his team, comprising Sir Edgar Biu, Sokoto Ebikonde Victor, Ebi Akiefa, with the host of others.

Present during the visit include Rt. Hon. Bob Collins Igetei, Speaker of 5th Mobile Parliament (IYC) Worldwide, the Western Zone Executive members, Comr. Williams Ayoromiegha Welemu Jnr, Comr.
